Starting The Engine; Stopping The Engine - Windsor Lighting 1.022-322.0 Operator Instructions Manual

OPERATION

STARTING THE ENGINE

1. Plug in 12 volt starter cord on models so equipped.
2. We recommend setting the throttle on models with 12 volt starter to the following positions:
The Kawasaki twin cylinder engines are designed to be started in the IDLE throttle position. This creates
a vacuum necessary to open the lock-off valve inside the regulator. Actuation of the throttle lever will keep
the lock-off valve from opening and the engine from getting fuel so the engine will not start. Proper
maintenance will insure easy starting.
3. Open (counterclockwise) the service valve on the propane tank about one and a half turns.
4. Ensure the burnisher is tilted back so that the pad is off the floor on all machines without a clutch.
5. Engage starter for a MAXIMUM of 5 to 6 seconds or until the engine fires. Serious starter damage will
result if this is exceeded and the warranty may not apply.
6. Operate the engine at half throttle for approximately two minutes for proper warm-up. Then advance to
full throttle for best results.
NOTE: If the engine refuses to start, see the Troubleshooting Guide.

STOPPING THE ENGINE

1. Close (clockwise) the service valve on the propane tank.
2. ALWAYS allow the engine to run until it stops from lack of fuel.
ONLY IN AN EMERGENCY should the "kill switch" be used to stop the engine.
3. Disconnect the fuel line from the tank.
4. When you are finished with the machine, store the propane tank outside the building, in a SECURE place
away from heat or direct sunlight.
